Heavy Chennai rains to make an appearance for first time since onset of Northeast Monsoon

The city of Chennai has seen the onset of Northeast Monsoon on October 25. However, despite the onset over southern parts of the country, Chennai has not seen heavy showers at all. In fact, as far as the past four days are concerned, the city has seen moderate showers on simply two occasions i.e. on October 25 and in the last 24 hours. Heavy rains on the other hand have remained far away for quite some time.

However, things are about to change since Chennai rains will make an appearance, and that too with a bang. Heavy rains are expected to be seen over the capital city of Tamil Nadu starting today and will last until Sunday. Hence, for the next 2-3 days, the city of Chennai is expected to see some heavy showers.

These upcoming rains have been attributed to a low pressure area, which is over Southwest Bay of Bengal off Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka Coast. This system is expected to give some heavy rainfall activity in the coming days. Due to this being a weekend, commuters will not face trouble.
